Giving is Personal

"Freed has allowed me to pursue both of my interests in life all in one place. Not many college students get the opportunity to oversee a mission trip to South America with their professors and be published for undergraduate research all in the same year."

Computer Science

During the Spring 2015 semester, I had the opportunity to do an internship in the IT department of Freed-Hardeman University. I was able to do something that has always intrigued me: iOS development.The application that I was a part of developing was will be used to support various events (e.g. Horizons or Lectureship) hosted by Freed-Hardeman.

Throughout the spring semester, I had the privilege of working as an intern at Younger Associates (YA) in Jackson, Tennessee. YA is a market research and marketing agency that develops websites as part of an integrated communications strategy for clients all over the U.S.

SDX (Summer Development eXperience) was an amazing two week experience I was a part of this summer. The goal of this experience was to finish the DocuSim web app on web-based patient assessment form for nursing students use in their simulated labs.

I like pi, who doesn’t? Pi, the number that gives us circles. Pie, a delicious dessert that comes in many different flavors. Pi, a pocket sized computer with capacity for hours of entertainment. This last kind of pi, Raspberry Pi, is one of things we were lucky to work with this year in Operating Systems (CIS 460).

This semester in Computer Networks (CIS 345) we are flipping the class. In practical terms this means we listen to lectures that have been recorded before coming to class and use class time for discussion and hands on activity. While this may put more responsibility on us as the students, we get a lot more out of it.

Each spring, graduating computer science majors FHU take Advanced Topics in Computer Science (CIS 491), a course that serves as the capstone course of their undergraduate program. The main component of this course is a significant, real-world development project.
